Dorico column cupboard

The enduring interest and admiration for the work and design of Fornasetti has been expressed at an auction in Munich recently where this Dorico cupboard was sold for EUR11,000 (against an estimate of EUR4-7,000).



I featured the same cupboard in my post 0f 9 May, but suggested that the feet used in that depiction (above) could be improved upon, and I think this brass stand is certainly that. However, I believe a polished brass that produced a "battleship grey" patina would have suited the black and white of the cupboard much better.
